Can anyone else think of anything else falling apart in 2011?

I've discovered yet more proof that leaders of the World should have read Caritas in Veritate here, but arguably, it was already too late. Poor stockbrokers. Poor Europe! My opinion is that Pope Benedict XVI should be put in charge of everything. The Holy Father would most likely, in turn, encourage all of Europe to pray the Rosary and Europe would then be saved, markets would undergo correction and small businesses would flourish once more, house prices would undergo a correction and jobs would be created by wealthy landowners, etc, etc.
